Question 1
Question 2

A system administrator has noticed that static routes are missing after rebooting a system. What is the most likely reason for this?



Answer : C

The administrator has failed to run the cfgmgr command before rebooting the systems. Running the cfgmgr command before rebooting a system is important, as it ensures that any changes made to the configuration are written to the system, otherwise the changes may be lost when the system is rebooted. Other commands such as chdev and route add are not related to this issue and will not solve the problem.

For more information on the cfgmgr command, please refer to the IBM AIX v7 Administrator Specialty Study Guide, page 10-7. The guide can be found here: https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/en/ssw_aix_72/cfgmgmt/cfgmgr_command.htm.


Question 3

Which command lists filesets that are below AIX V7.2 technology level 4?



Answer : A

This command will list all filesets that are below the AIX V7.2 technology level 4. The oslevel command is a useful tool for AIX administrators, as it allows them to list the installed technology levels and filesets. Other commands such as lslpp, lppchk, and instfix are not applicable to this task and will not provide the desired information.

For more information on the oslevel command, please refer to the IBM AIX v7 Administrator Specialty Study Guide, page 12-15. The guide can be found here: https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/en/ssw_aix_72/os_upgrade/oslevel_command.htm.


Question 4

Based on the output from the lparstat command, how many logical processors are configured in the partition?



Answer : D


Question 5

An AIX administrator installed the fileset named useful_fileset. How can they determine which files are included in the fileset?



Answer : B

The 'lslpp' command can be used to display information about filesets installed on an AIX system. To determine which files are included in the 'useful_fileset' fileset, the administrator can run the following command:

lslpp -f useful_fileset

This command will display detailed information about the 'useful_fileset' fileset, including a list of the files that are included in the fileset. This information can be useful for verifying the installation of the fileset and for troubleshooting problems that may be related to the fileset.


Question 6

What command is used to monitor SAN I/O performance/throughput?



Answer : A

The command used to monitor SAN I/O performance/throughput is iostat -DIRT 60 10. The iostat command is used to monitor I/O performance and throughput on a SAN device. The DIRT (Disk I/O Response Time) flag can be used to display the response time for each I/O request. The last two arguments, 60 and 10, are the interval (in seconds) and the number of iterations respectively. This command will monitor I/O performance/throughput every 60 seconds for 10 iterations.


Question 7

What are three states a device can have when connected to an AIX system?



Answer : A, B, C

Devices that are connected to the system can be in one of four states.

Devices that are connected to the system can be in one of the following states:

Item

Description

Undefined

The device is unknown to the system.

Defined

Specific information about the device is recorded in the customized database, but it is unavailable to the system.

Available

A defined device is coupled to the operating system, or the defined device is configured.

Stopped

The device is unavailable but remains known by its device driver.

If a tty device and a printer alternately use the same tty connector, both a tty device and a printer are defined on the same parent and port in the device configuration database. Only one of these devices can be configured at a time. When the tty connector is configured, the printer specific setup information is retained until it is configured again. The device is not removed; it is in the defined state. Maintaining a device in defined state retains customized information for a device that is not currently in use, either before it is first made available or while it is temporarily removed from the system.

If a device driver exists for a device, the device can be made available through the device driver.
